HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP UNDER THE ACT OF OCTOBER 18, 1988

NOTICE OF PROMPT INTERIM RESPONSE

ADSCO Site, Tyrone Township, Adams County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), has initiated a prompt interim response at the ADSCO site. This response has been undertaken under section 505(b) of the HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.505(b)). The site is located at  Tyrone Township, Adams County, PA.

   The ADSCO Site (Site) is located along Cranberry Road approximately 1.5 miles east of the town of Aspers. The area surrounding the Site consists mostly of agricultural lands. There is limited residential development in the vicinity of the Site. The Site, an inactive landfill since 1990, is a 108-acre property on which approximately 25 acres are land filled.

   The operators did not properly close the landfill. However, a carbon filtration point-of-entry treatment system was provided for the onsite resident's water supply, a spring, which had been contaminated with volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) above regulatory standards. During site assessment activities, the Department detected the VOC Vinyl Chloride, which had not been previously detected in the water supply. Vinyl Chloride, a Class A Human Carcinogen, is not removed by carbon filtration. Bottled water for drinking purposes was supplied as an emergency measure.

   The Department proposes a prompt interim response at this site to protect public health and safety or the environment. This determination is based on the continued release of VOCs to the groundwater and the actual human exposure to hazardous substances via inhalation, ingestion and dermal contact.

   The Department considered three alternatives:  1. Continued carbon treatment of the spring supply and provision of bottled water for drinking purposes. Although this alternative removes the ingestion threat posed by the VOCs present, it does not remove the inhalation threat posed by Vinyl Chloride. 2. Addition of an air-stripping unit to the existing carbon filtration treatment system. This alternative removes the inhalation threat associated with Vinyl Chloride. However, there are engineering problems involved with collecting and treating the water from the spring, a surface water source, especially in treating for the bacterial contamination threat often associated with surface water supplies. 3. Replacement of the surface water source with a ground water well and provision of a treatment system utilizing both air stripping and carbon filtration. This alternative removes the inhalation, ingestion and dermal contact threats posed by the VOC contamination. This alternative also avoids the engineering difficulties associated with collecting and treating the spring water and greatly reduces the threat from bacterial contamination posed by the use of a surface water source. This alternative will be protective of human health and the environment.

   The Department is providing this notice under sections 505(b) and 506(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. §§ 6020.505(b) and 6020.506(b)) and the publication of this notice starts the administrative record period under HSCA. The Administrative Record which contains information about this site and which supports the Department's decision to perform this action at the site is available for public review and comment. The Administrative Record can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's Southcentral Regional Office located at 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Jeff Silar at (717) 705-4842. The Administrative Record can also be reviewed at the Adams County Public Library located at 140 Baltimore Street, Gettysburg, PA 17325 during normal operating hours by contacting the library at (717) 334-5716.

   The Administrative Record will be open for comment from the date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and will remain open for 90 days. Persons may submit written comments regarding this action to the Department before February 9, 2002, by mailing them to Jeff Silar at Department of Environmental Protection, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110-8200.

   The public will have an opportunity to present oral comments regarding the proposed action at a public hearing. The hearing has been scheduled for December 11, 2001, at 7 p.m. at the Tyrone Township Building located at 5280 Old Harrisburg Road, York Springs, PA 17372. Persons wishing to present formal oral comment at the hearing should register before 4 p.m., December 7, 2001, by calling Sandra Roderick at (717) 705-4931.

   If no person registers to present oral comments by December 7, 2001, the hearing will not be held, but will be replaced with an informational meeting. Persons interested in finding out if anyone has registered and if the hearing will be held, should also contact Sandra Roderick at the previous number. An informational meeting will be held following the hearing.

   Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings, should call Sandra Roderick at the previous number or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.
